Dear All,
Greetings,
I would like to know about the offer letter/appointment letter format. I have recently joined an IT Company with over 60 employees. Here, there is no separate appointment letter; the same offer letter is used as an appointment letter.
Are the offer letter and appointment letter the same document?
I hope you will share your views as soon as possible.
Thanks & Regards,

Dear Sritha. R,
There is a huge difference between an appointment letter and an offer letter. An offer letter means the company offers a person to join the concern (the person may or may not join the concern), while an appointment letter is proof of appointment. It signifies that a person is accepting the offer, ready to work for the concern, and agrees with the terms and conditions of the appointment with the concern.
Hope this meets your requirements.
For further communication, keep in touch.

I need one piece of information. I have resigned and given one month's notice to the company, but the company wants me to continue my service until the 2-month notice period as per the offer letter. The company is also not ready to accept my resignation and is not approving my 1-month relieving date. Is it true that the company can take legal action against the employee if they do not serve the complete notice period? I am willing to pay the notice pay penalty. Please advise me and let me know what precautions I should take.

There is a huge difference, and I agree with Pankaj Chandan's suggestion, who absolutely describes the same. An appointment letter will be issued when your acceptance is received by the employer against the offer letter. Here, acceptance is an important part.

Hi,
Difference in Offer & Appointment: There are significant differences for the candidates between an offer and an appointment.
Offer letter: The company issues an offer letter to the new joiners. This letter specifies the joining date, designation, some confidential information, and acceptance of the letter will initiate further processes. The offer letter serves as proof for the company.
Appointment letter: Normally, the company issues the appointment letter within 1 or 2 days after receiving the offer letter. This letter includes all details regarding company policies, agreements, and salary information. Overall, all necessary details will be provided.

Offer Letter would be given to anyone who is getting selected, and the company is happy with, after all the interview and negotiation process.
Appointment Letter would be given only to the people who accept the offer and the terms and conditions and join the company.

I think the Letter of Intent (intimation) and offer are almost the same. Whereas, by having an appointment letter, a new joinee comes under the obligation of the policies, procedures, and management norms of the company.

Hi Amit,
I have resigned and given one month's notice to the company, but the company wants me to continue my service for the full two-month notice period as per the offer letter. The company is also not ready to accept my resignation or approve my requested relieving date after one month.
Is it true that the company can take legal action against an employee who does not serve the complete notice period? I am prepared to pay a notice pay penalty. Please advise me on what precautions I should take.
